MSc in Organisational Psychology - Batch of 2026
2.6
You won't learn significantly more than you did during your bachelor's degree in India.
Tips: I got bicentary global futures scholarship, the allowance is 8000 pounds. I am not satisfied with the course, country and university; they don't consider the difficulties that international students face. I believe education in India is far better than in the UK.
Likes (Public transportation): It is connected very nicely; there are trams and buses. It's expensive if you compare it to India. The prices increase every year. It's convenient to walk and then take the bus. If you travel in larger groups, take a cab, and you can split the same amount. The bus fare is 2 pounds one way.
Dislikes (Internships): You just get guidance for resume making, but you have to find and apply by yourself. No relevant internships. They dont take international students at all. You will see that all the Britishers of your class are getting it but not you as an international student.

Strong faculty, academically inclined, but poor career support.
Tips: Manchester + Uom genuinely changed me. I'd lived abroad in Sweden before, so moving countries wasn't new, but Manchester hits different. Manchester feels different, cloudy, social, and full of character. Living here has made me more patient and open-minded just by living in such a diverse place. It is also super safe compared to India, and that safety unlocks a new kind of confidence; you start feeling like the world is your playground. I become more independent, more secure in my own style, and more me. Day-to-day is very "Oxford Road main arc" where life circles lectures, library, coffee runs, and constantly running into people because the whole stretch is basically student central. When I am not in lectures, I am mostly hiking around speak district, people watching around NQ, or on my way to inhale food on Curry Mile. And the rain is super annoying at first, but as you go through the seasons, you go from gloomy to romanticising the rain, where later on you huddle up and imagine yourself as an indie movie character. Academically, the University of Manchester is strong. For data Science, a lot of teaching staff are from other departments, so they are genuinely experts in their fields. All the professors are warm and welcoming in general. I would suggest the university for students who want to pursue further studies. A lot of students secured partial and full ride schlorhsip, especially within the school of engineering and AMBS. Overall, being in university is strong academically, but there is not much support career wise 70% of the class always move back home, and the rest struggle due to international passports and strict government regulations. Even though I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here, I think it is a better option to apply in the EU or Australia.
Dislikes (Internships): The University of Manchester has a dedicated careers centre but the support feels more like it only exists in theory. The practical support available for postgrad students seeking internships is limited in effectiveness. The opportunities are mostly available to students who already carry relevant work experience (2+ years) in their home country or are British passport holders. Many capable fresh college graduates struggle to secure a job despite making active efforts. There are no readily available internships; the university does have some programs in different schools, such as engineering or medicine but again these resources are mostly centred around undergrad students.

MSc in Health Data Science - Batch of 2024
4.1
The city is well connected.
Tips: The culture is a bit different but one can easily adapt to it. I did not avail any scholarship for this course. It's a self learning course, the professors help with the work but the majority of the work is expected to be done by the student. This is a bit different from the learning structure in India.
Likes (Public transportation): The city is well connected. Bus is the cheapest mode of transportation 5-6 for an entire day. There are many reliable alternatives as well, in case of schedule changes due to weather, strike, etc. The transport system is very efficient for students.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Current changes in government might influence the route to ILR. Once someone lands a sponsorship, the route to ILR is quite straightforward. Would recommend students to have a look at the roles that are currently in demand before picking their course/specialisation.

Great experiences, vibrant city and a good student culture.
Tips: For my particular course which was the MBA, it is vital to have solid work experience. This is important for doing well in the course and for getting a job later. -There are many cultural differences as compared to India, but a student will experience them only when they arrive here. You need to be more outgoing as compared to India, be able to hold conversations with a barista of a coffee shop as well as a director in a company. Manchester is very diverse and is a wonderful city for students, very vibrant, very happening and not as expensive. I was awarded a scholarship of 7000 GBP based on my work experience and GMAT score. I was awarded this by the university and did not apply for it separately. Very satisfied with everything, I believe this is the best value for money MBA among the top business schools in the UK.
Likes (Safety): Manchester is a safe town, in general UK is quite safe. I have been around the city at 3 AM too and never felt unsafe. There are probably one or two streets where I would not venture out alone at night but for the most part it is safe. I have never had any bad incidents. The most popular crime that takes place is phone snatching, but there is a very easy solution to this, which is not to use your phones while walking on the street.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Various global cuisines are available in Manchester which is the most vibrant city in the UK outside of London. Indian food options are quite limited/average compared to other UK cities. I usually prefer cooking myself but occasionally eat out too.

Excellent and friendly university.
Tips: The University of Manchester is excellent. It is filled with people who are there to help you, and you have the freedom to explore your hobbies. I adjusted quite well with everyone and did not experience much cultural shift. I received an academic scholarship worth 7,000. If you are eligible, the university takes you into consideration without having to apply. I am quite satisfied with the university and the country. However, I would have liked it if the course had been paced more effectively and we had been taught more relevant material.
Likes (Indian Food): It is a cultural hub and you can find any cuisine quite easily. Especially in Manchester there is a street called Curry Mile which has shops from India, Pakistan and even Middle Eastern countries. The pricing varies from shop to shop. I prefer cooking my food because it allows me to put as much spice in the food as I want.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I'm not sure how many companies offer sponsored visas, but there are quite a few. Sponsorship is not based on the role; however, roles in AI and data Science see more sponsorship. For a sponsored role, your salary should be above 32,000 GBP while junior roles tend to start from 24,000-26,000 GBP.

Tips: Learn to make your own interpretations, as classes are not based on rote learning or mugging up from the textbooks.

The city of living is less than London but high nonetheless.

Good university where different culture meets.
Tips: The University of Manchester is a good place to experience different cultures because students from different cultures and countries come there. Some scholarships have to be applied for 7 months before the university starts and the university has professors from different countries and experiences. There are career guidance and CV preparation guides available at the University. However the UK job market is tough for international students, so finding an internship or job takes many applications and rejections. Unfortunately, there are no internships available for Master's students.
Likes (Indian Food): There are plenty of restaurants for every taste including Indian, Chinese, Italian and Middle Eastern cuisine as well as popular fast food joints like Subway, McDonald’s and Domino’s. However dining out at these establishments can get expensive and I personally find it much more cost effective to cook my meals.

Amazing university in a great city with friendly, welcoming and fun-loving locals.
Tips: The hardest part at the beginning was food. I did not know how to cook many things, but I adapted. Most people I know from India chose to live in catered halls to avoid this problem, and some knew how to cook. Living and taking care of yourself also comes as a cultural shock, you need to do your own cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, etc. Have an open mind, and you'll be fine. There are lots of part-time jobs available, but you have to put in the effort to look for those. Most jobs hire on a casual basis, which means they are flexible, and you can assign shifts based on your studies. The university also has many part-time roles available. Most pay is minimum wage on an hourly basis. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Internships): Securing an internship comes more down to personal skills rather than what university you attend. Most big companies use a holistic assessment approach to select candidates. It is important to be focused from the very start, join societies, and get some part-time work. This will surely help. The university has a brilliant careers service which you can use.

Enriching academic and cultural experience at UoM.
Tips: When you come to the university you can expect a cultural shift and a need to adapt to independent living. Engaging with your fellow students and the university as a whole will help you adjust to academic rigour and cultural diversity. The faculty at this college is highly knowledgeable, supportive and experienced. The professors are approachable and provide prompt email responses. The focus on practical applications is effective and engaging. The faculty comes from diverse backgrounds which brings a global perspective to the classroom. I am highly satisfied with my course, university and the UK's cultural richness.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The Indian food options in Manchester are decent but not always authentic. There are two types of restaurants in the locality budget friendly ones like Bundobust and Chaiwala where a meal costs 7-10 pounds per person and mid-range ones like Dishoom and Mowgli where a meal costs 15-25 pounds per person. I usually cook my own meals.

Tips: The University of Manchester is a diverse and culturally rich university with a lot of internal opportunities. The course content is good and designed for students with at least a year or two of experience in the field of study. The university is recognized globally and has a good reputation. Student diversity is above 90%. Different types of scholarships are available so students can apply for international scholarships.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The quality of teaching and the professors at this university are fabulous. The professors are very experienced in their subject of teaching. They are from different countries and have studied at top-tier universities. They also have ground-level experience in their fields. In addition, the faculty is very helpful and provides support for assignments.
Dislikes (Internships): The university does not provide internships. You have to find one on your own time outside of study hours. Also, it is difficult to manage a part-time job, your classes, assignments, and coursework because the courses are intense and you have classes three to four days a week.

Good college with amazing experience.
Tips: I was awarded a scholarship that provided a tuition discount. I applied for the scholarship online, and the process was straightforward. There were some cultural adjustments, but the large Indian population made the transition easier. I am very satisfied with the University of Manchester, the course I took, and the country itself.
Likes (Public transportation): The city is well connected by bus and trams and has multiple railway stations. Cabs are also easily available. The campus is in the centre of the city, so it is well-connected. It is also a walking distance from the city centre. Public transport is very affordable and they offer passes too.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It all depends on whether you've got a job or not, and whether the company wants to sponsor a visa or not. The chances of permanent settlement are pretty slim as of now given the global scenario and slim job market. But if given a chance, I would like to settle in the UK, barring some cities.

A break from the corporate world with preparation for the real world.
Tips: There definitely is a cultural shift here that we face, and it is much better than home so it won't be an issue settling down. We should be prepared for the hard work. The university rankings matter but not a lot, so you are mostly on your own. There is no placement department or anything like that, so we are ourselves responsible for job hunting and everything, and as in every other country, it's not that easy to get a job. 
Likes (Student Life): The college community/student union has a lot of activities planned throughout the year, which really helps us lay off some streams from all the studies. Festivals, especially big ones like Diwali/Holi, are a lot of fun as all students get together and have fun. Student clubs are fun, but I wasn't able to participate a lot given the course structure and assignments. 
Dislikes (Part time work): There are part-time options available, but the course is a little tiring, which leaves very few windows for working. Having said that, there is a lot of competition given the number of students and dependents, so it is also hard to get a part-time job. Also, because of this competition, employers, specifically restaurants, exploit the students by paying them cash in hand, which is much lower than the minimum wage. But yes, I have a few friends who got a good part-time job, but such examples are pretty low.

Tips: Student should be clear about the course modules of their chosen programme. They should book the accommodation well in advance before coming to the city to avoid any last minutes inconveniences. They should check for various scholarships and apply on priority basis.

Its super convenient with regards to food as the city offer cuisines, snacks and local food items for their daily life style. Manchester has so many interesting cafes to visit which adds so much value to your student life experience.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): In the UK permanent immigration and settlement options are quite difficult due to government policies. The company hiring you as an employee needs to sponsor your visa which is an expensive and lengthy process for the company. However, if a student manages to get a job in the UK it is considered a better option as the lifestyle, career growth and future opportunities there are better than India.

Tips: The cost of living in London is very expensive. Students should plan for accommodation, groceries, transportation, and other expenses.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Brunel's placement office is great, they give students visual help and the facts they need. They also help with advice after you finish studying. Students can get the UK graduate visa after they graduate. The university really helps out because they give good guidance and Brunel does that. Dealing with the immigration stuff takes time and research but I think it just depends on how much you look into it and how hard you work.

High-quality education with good connectivity to Central London.
Tips: Brunel University, located in Uxbridge has good connectivity to central London. Rent is also very low. Uxbridge is a single-campus university with a large 24/7 library and one of the biggest sports complexes in the UK. I received a scholarship of 6000 from the university. Public transportation in Axbridge has a station on the London Underground's Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines. This allows students to travel easily across London for work, internships, or entertainment, providing direct connectivity to Central London.
Dislikes (Internships): The university offers good opportunities but they are not guaranteed for every student. Many courses include placement, tears and the university provides support through career services to the students enrolled in them.

Excellent support facilities.
Tips: Living in London can be expensive; a typical student may spend around 1700 per month. So managing expenses becomes very critical. Also I got a scholarship of 6000 from the university. It was the Vice Chancellor's scholarship that was offered to me.
Likes (Part time work): The University of part-time roles through services like Brunel professional development Centre, where post like student ambassadors assistance, campus event, staff, research, or admin helpers are available.

Participate in sports activities. Brunel University has more than a hundred clubs and societies, sports teams and leagues.

Good facilities and infrastructure.
Tips: Brunel University is one of the top ranked universities when it comes to the ranking of social inclusion. It is one of the most targeted universities by students from more than 190 countries. I got the scholarship from the university which made it easy for me to apply and come here. Brunel University has a vast campus that offers a variety of amenities such as support facilities, clubs, party halls, get-togethers, sports and food stores. Brunel has its own supermarket store named Costcutter where all types of groceries are available for on campus student. There are a lot of opportunities that are available here in this city and country; one cannot be dependent on the university or someone else to get these opportunities converted. A student needs to work hard and apply regularly to internships in order to secure them and convert them into a permanent job. I'm satisfied with my course content.

There are many Indian food options in the nearby area.
Tips: Compared to other cities in the UK, London has a larger Asian population particularly Indians in cities like Liverpool. I received a scholarship of 4000 from the university based on my graduation marks. I am satisfied with the culture and education at my university. I have had good experiences.
Likes (Indian Food): London specifically the Uxbridge area does not have many Indian restaurants but it does have Sri Krishna Vada pav and a few local Indian restaurants. A 20 minute drive from Uxbridge brings you to Southall which has an abundance of Indian cuisines and restaurants.
Dislikes (Safety): The Uxbridge area of London is considered one of the safest, with very few reported crimes. I haven't heard of any bad experiences from my friends nor have I had any there. But talking about the city of London they have had very bad experiences with my friends especially with one of my friends, as he had his phone snatched while he was moving along the footpath.

Job opportunities are available outside and inside the campus.
Tips: Brunel University is one of those universities that offers placement for the Master's programme which proves to be a very crucial thing. I got a scholarship of 6000 from the university itself. I am satisfied with my country and the course in which I am enrolled. There are a lot of part-time opportunities that are available on campus and outside campus as well as talking about the campus opportunities. There are opportunities like student ambassador, research assistant, where a student can work within the university and earn some money outside the university. There are positions such as a teacher assistant, a teaching volunteer and a customer assistant at a superstore. The only thing that is required for this part-time job is seriousness.
Dislikes (Internships): The university provides career support and there is a dedicated team of people who are always ready to help students with their CVs, job applications and everything. There are lots of internship opportunities available in my field.

Well-connected public transportation facilities.
Tips: Brunel University offers a variety of scholarships and benefits to international students. My transition to London was quite smooth. I had struggled a bit in the initial days but things got better after a few days as I made new friends at the university. London has the most well established public transportation system whether it's tubes, trains, buses or trams. Every part of London is accessible through public transport. I am satisfied with my university and course.
Dislikes (Student Life): Hydrated four star for the student life at the Brunel university because of the Brunel universities, vast campus area and the diversity of student that are living on the campus.

Work hard, be patient, and you'll get the best.
Tips: I would say that I was lucky enough to get a job in my own field; usually, people struggle to get a job even after coming here. The day you enter the country, don't get comfortable with life. I know they've invested a lot, and this is just to enjoy our life and get all the benefits, but from day one, start applying and start connecting with people, start networking yourself with recruiters and connect with a lot of people on LinkedIn and keep your LinkedIn profile updated because LinkedIn is a new CV. This would really help you to get an internship or a part-time job along with your studies, which would really boost your CV to get a full-time job for yourself. Always remember that till January there is a competition because of all the graduates programmes, but after January, the competition is almost less than half old students, and most of them leave the country without taking a poster work or Visa, so don't give up there would be times where you will want to give up, but I would rather suggest not to give up because the good time would always come.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is unmatched. They are so helpful. They are so polite. They are so kind. I can share everything with them, and they listen to me very peacefully and very patiently without even judging me, so I feel that this is something which every student needs abroad, and this becomes a necessity for students because they suffer from a lot of things at once. So this is something which I really love about the University.
Dislikes (Part time work): I was lucky enough to get a part-time job because I have certain skills which made me get a job but my friends even after trying so much, were not able to get jobs for themselves, which I believe is a very big drawback for the country, as they are unable to hire international talent. This would make them not manage the expenses.

The university is excellent but the country is not safe.
Tips: Students should learn that it is not an easy journey, but they will learn certain things. Earlier, I used to doubt myself that I wouldn't even get a job, but now that I have graduated, it has taken me a lot of time. I worked as a Bedi. I have worked in retail, though I have studied, but I have done everything just for my survival in the country and I used to do job applications along with those because of which today I have a job. It is not my dream job, but it is a job that is in my own field, so I believe that you should trust yourself and trust the process. Everything will be in its place by the time you move forward. The place where I live has good access to public transport, buses, and trains. Sometimes there are delays with the tube station, but I have an alternate option, which is the bus so I have multiple ways of commuting, which is really very convenient, but the only disadvantage is that it is not affordable at all. Anytime I wanna go, I have to spend at least 5 pounds for me to travel, so that's quite expensive. I have seen many cases of robbery, and I have seen many cases of murder as well. Every day, there is a different case of either robbing, stabbing or something but the police do nothing.

Student life with strong international exposure.
Tips: Students should know before joining the college that the academic is fast paced and self learning. With college you should be aware that you will be doing part time as well to manage your expenses so you have to manage your time accordingly for both academic and job. London is the safest for students because it offers secure accommodation, well lit streets and easily accessible transportation which makes students lives easier and safer. Even at late night the transportation is good and CCTV is everywhere. I don't have any bad experience in the city.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The job market is not good and for settlement, you need a sponsored visa which leads to permanent settlement which also depends on job role and salary requirements. If I get chance I will do a job here but not thinking about the permanent settlement.

A good learning experience with global exposure.
Tips: Students should know that college focuses on independent learning and practical assignments, so good time management is important. The cost of living especially in London is also high so budgeting is also necessary. The transition was mostly smooth though there was a culture shift in teaching style and communication. I didn't get any scholarship. The UK offers clear pathways such as the skilled worker visa which lead to permanent settlement. However it depends on the sponsored job role and salary requirements. My chance of permanent immigration to this country depends on finding a stable role with visa sponsorship. I am highly satisfied with my university and course.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): London offers various job opportunities and a lot of companies offer skilled worker visa as well but the difficulties are for the entry level jobs. Most of the jobs require experience so it is difficult for entry level to get a job. Common roles are business analyst, data analyst, finance associate, etc., whose salaries range between 28000 and 40000.

Great experience and very good for networking.
Tips: There is initially a lot of struggle when you enter the country, but if you have good connections, if you have good networking, it would be worth it studying and gaining work experience because the work culture is really very good. People are really very respectful and the toxic nature ends in this country. It is not toxic at all. I mean, in the places where I have worked, it wasn't toxic at all and if you find anything that is disturbing around you in your work area, wherever you can always report to your HR or your manager because they will one hundred percent come to a solution for your problem. I received a scholarship 6000 from my university because I scored well in my undergraduate studies. My course is really very good and I am satisfied with my course at my university, but the country I find a bit disappointing because of the increasing crime every day, but I would never blame the university. The university is in a very good location. It has all the amenities a student can ask for.
Likes (Internships): I was the one who got lucky in it, but talking about other people, it is not really good, but through references, I was able to get an internship which kickstarted my career. I was able to gain a lot of experience, though it was not in the sector that I am studying for, but it was within the legal sector, and the field was different. I am studying criminal law, whereas immigration law was a bit different but I was lucky enough to at least gain some experience during my studies within the legal field.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): There have been a lot of changes since I entered the country and the permanent settlement has become a hassle for all the immigrants. Getting a sponsorship in this country would be really very difficult. I would prefer going to my country and working for them rather than spending 10 years here and even after that it is not confirmed that we'll be getting citizenship or not.

Good experience for exposure.
Tips: Life is not as easy abroad as it seems to be. Once the student has gone abroad, they must be living their life doing a job and achieving everything that they can. The reality is really very harsh when you go to the country. It is very depressing. You have to live alone and do everything by yourself. You have to earn enough to pay your bills. You rent your food so that you're able to survive in this expensive country. We are so pampered back in India that we never realise that it is so different being independent, but the independence only feels when we are abroad.
Likes (Quality of faculty): My faculty is really very great, helpful and very understanding and they're really very cooperative. Even when the student is not able to submit the assignment on time, the person has a genuine reason for themselves and they really understand and give them time to complete the assignment. They believe that interacting with students is the primary thing because students do not have their family here and their initiative in speaking with the students and interacting with them. Make students feel like they are no less than a family to them.
Dislikes (Safety): Because of ongoing robbing, snatching, stabbing cases I witness these cases every day in front of my eyes. I was going on a walk one day where I saw by myself there were3-4 Nigerian African people who were robbing a delivery guy, even though the delivery guy was shouting for help, nobody came to help him, rather everybody just stood there and watched whatever happened so my experience in the city when it comes to safety concerns hasn't been really very great.

Many difficulties and challenges will be there, but it will still be worth it.
Tips: One should come ready to face all the challenges because you will face a lot of racism and be ready to bear all of these. You won't have your parents to mentally and emotionally give you that support so you are on your own. From where I live, the tube station is a half-hour walk away and there are only buses nearby. So travelling to Central London is a big mess, and the transportation is sure to be very hectic. In the area where I live, food from my country is a bit less and we have to travel a little further to find it. I prefer eating food from my own home. I cook it myself because if I go out to eat it is really expensive so I prefer to eat at home and cook my own meals.
